Product Description

This early inert 6.5×55 Swedish Mauser cartridge features the headstamp “1-RP 1924,” identifying it as a Swedish military round produced in 1924. The “1-RP” marking indicates the specific arsenal or production line within Sweden’s military ammunition system, while the date confirms it as an interwar period example. Cartridges from this era are highly sought after by collectors for their historical significance and quality manufacturing.

The 6.5×55 Mauser round was the standard service cartridge for Swedish and Norwegian Mauser rifles, renowned for its exceptional accuracy, moderate recoil, and reliable long-range performance. Swedish military rifles, such as the Mauser m/96 rifle and later m/38 variants, were chambered for this cartridge. Ammunition like this reflects Sweden’s careful design and consistent quality control in small arms production during the early 20th century.

This cartridge has been completely rendered inert, with the primer discharged and all propellant removed, making it fully safe for handling and display. It is ideal for collectors, historical displays, and educational purposes, offering a tangible connection to Sweden’s military heritage and the enduring legacy of the 6.5×55 Mauser round. Its clearly legible 1-RP 1924 headstamp enhances its value and historical authenticity.
